just thought i'd mention if no-one else has, you can see this beauty racing on the greyhound data site, just put in his racing name and you can watch the 4 that are on there.

Cracker

We took Cracker out for a walk yesterday with Cleo and we fell in love again, what a gorgous boy he is,( think even Pickle had an eye for him which is very good for her as she can be very stroppy esp when they have a sniff round her butt, but she never battered an eyelid, was that a smile I saw! lol) as they all are, if only it was me that could come again and choose some more of these lovely grays, the only problem being I would have to have them all! sigh.....x.

what a beautiful girl - she's somehow related to Riley (Mullenbane Bob) but still trying to work out exactly how. She'll have a home in no time x

Minnie
I’m Homed
Hi there, I havent had chance to log on for a while, so am having a quick crafty look before I launch into work!! So many dogs being returned, its so heart breaking. I agree totally with Ina, there are lots of dogs who dont get on with other breeds, but every dog deserves a good loving home and acceptance, well said. I have now got 3 greys, and while Ruby and Jo Jo are happy to pootle along around other dogs, Myles is very inquisitive and loves to howl at them from across the park even!! But he is getting better and starting to pull less to go see. Its a quirk of his personality and we love him! Daybreaks is so special and supportive its hard to imagine anyone could give up on a grey without even trying, and when that just doesnt work it is genuinely heartbreaking for the owners as well. But to just let go is so sad. I know they will all have a happy ending though just like the zillions of dogs that are in their forever homes because of all the fantastic work you all do xxxxx

See you tomorrow morning Ruth - fingers crossed. Its not Minnie I worry about. Just need to ensure that Sully doesn't get scared. At the moment he knows that his life has changed but I am not sure he realises its because Biscuit has gone. I hope he likes Minnie if she likes us. xxxxx

I feel so sorry for Benny. How is he with the other greys and is he used to cats?

Bailey

unfortunately he was unreserved as he did not like cats but that does not mean that he is not a wonderful boy. he is gentle and loving and very handsome and if someone without a cat wants a loving greyhound they can do a lot worse that this fellow. xxx

Geezer
Over the Rainbow Bridge
every time i see him in the kennels my heart tears a little more. he is such a love and we all adore him but i wish we could find someone for him who will want to give him a home and the love and security he needs. he is an intelligent lad and would learn easily and will make someone a super pet dog. have a look at him please he really deserves a chance. xxxx

Minnie
I’m Homed
Hi Tracy, Minnie is a sweet girl and has got on well with all her kennel mates - even when they have been quite bossy towards her. As you have read, she was returned. (sadly her previous owners strongly recommended that we should not rehome her - however at Daybreaks we believe EVERY dog can change with the right training) Therefore we assessed her for a week, allowing her to settle back into kennel life and then thought we would start the long hard process of trying to introduce and train her with other breeds. It was a long hard slog on the first day..... it took approx 10 minutes before we had her muzzle off with Cracker as shown in the photo! This is not to say she will be a breeze with other breeds straight away but she just needs the right training and she responds so well. She is a clever girl and very clean in her kennel. Bring Sully along on Saturday and take them both for a walk and see what you think..... Thinking of you still..... know how hard it must be for you losing Biscuit xxx

Cracker

i just so adore Cracker, he is a lovely lovely boy, lively and beautiful but not rough or uncouth with it. i can't understand why he is still at the kennels as he is so well behaved when he is out for his walks and he loves people and making a fuss of them. he is stunning to look at and surely to goodness someone out there is going to want to offer him a home soon. he and Geezer both deserve a home of their own as soon as possible. xxx

Rocky really is a lovely gentle handsome big boy. he looks at you with his dark serious eyes and gently wags his tail, when they are like this they get to me every time, it's almost as if they are trying to read us. he is truely lovely and hopefully will find a home soon. xxx

Minnie

i am surprised that Minnie is still at the kennels as she is a lovely little lady who is fully housetrained and very well mannered. she adores attention and loves to play and then comes to you for a proper cuddling session, a very affectionate little girl and so deserving of someone to offer her a forever home and the chance of learning to tolerate other breeds. keep fingers crossed it won't be too long. xxx
